InstitutionalThe InterConnect project brought the concept of interoperability into our homes and provided residential consumers the possibility to contribute to a more resilient power grid. A tool consisting of an energy manager and a mobile application made this possible. The result? More participation, less network load at peak times and “reduced intensity in terms of carbon produced”.
